In case of emergency, you can also wash something by hand, so the diaper that leaked over doesn’t dry in quite as badly. Alternatively, you could of course tile in two stages and move the washing machine in between, but honestly, that seems like more effort to me than washing by hand.

So if the leveling compound is really already in place at your place or if the screed is already that smooth, then you can do it perfectly in sections. It does not have to be tiled all at once.

Well, I recently had click vinyl that I couldn't cut with a knife. A circular saw was needed, and it was quite a mess, despite extraction. Apparently, there are different types - watch out when shopping!

I installed self-adhesive vinyl in the bathroom here in the transitional house. It was inexpensive, has a wood look, and was actually very easy to work with. You could cut it with a cutter knife and the adhesive holds very well. I installed it quite "sloppily" in one day (about 7m²) and really didn’t work neatly because we only live here temporarily and I didn’t feel like putting in much effort. :D Also, I stuck it directly onto the old tiles without any preparation or leveling. But I’m still quite happy with the look. I think if you lay this stuff carefully, it’s perfectly sufficient for a utility room.

It is super smooth, if it weren't so uncomfortable and the threshold to the kitchen weren't so stupid, I would probably have just painted it to make it look better and left it otherwise as is. :D I would have to think about the sections. How long does such a tile adhesive have to cure before I can put the washing machine and dryer on it to finish tiling the rest?

Oh, that sounds like something for us. :cool: Do you remember the manufacturer? And do you maybe have a photo of the "sloppy" result - maybe that will almost be good enough for us... You can't see the edges anyway, you mostly only see the floor in the middle and in front of the door because everything is so cluttered. A wood look would also fit well here, it would be a good contrast to the beige-gray tiles in the kitchen.
